Top 10 Employee Handbook Mistakes

​

Done right, employee handbooks serve multiple functions.

They provide employees with important information about a company, its practices and the working environment. They also help protect employers legally by setting clear expectations and standards that employees must comply with.

Done wrong, employee handbooks can do more harm than good.

Policies that are too specific and rigid can potentially limit an employer’s flexibility when dealing with real issues. Conversely, policies that are too general make it difficult for employers to hold employees accountable for their actions and behavior.

How does an employer find the right balance in their employee handbook? The first step is to be aware of the potential pitfalls.
